Jay Madden · Answer 1

The correct option is D.

Most nouns are turned into plural forms by adding letter 's' to the nouns. Other nouns required adding 'es' or changing the 'y' to 'i; and then adding 'es', but these are small in number compare to those that require adding letter s. Examples of nouns that required addition of letter s in order to form the plural form are: boy, girl, pencil, pen, school, parent, etc.
